BWW Review: IN THE SHADOW OF THE BLACK DOG, King's Head Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Sep 9, 2021
“Where do men go to grieve?” a failed relationship, a fixer-upper job in a pub, a sudden fear of dying, and now his best friend’s suicide are breaking Daniel Hallissey’s character. In the Shadow of the Black Dog (written by Hallissey and directed by Conor Neaves) tackles men’s mental health in a long stream of consciousness. Unfortunately, it doesn’t give any solution, or insight, or way out. It’s sadly full of stereotypes, excused machismo, and a propensity to victimisation.
